Physician Assistant Program

Would you like to serve on a team that is dedicated to caring for individuals in a health care setting? Do you want to work in one of health care's fastest growing fields? Can you see yourself delivering care to those in need by performing 85% of the duties commonly handled by primary care physicians? If so, then the Physician Assistant Program at Seton Hill University is for you.

Physician assistants are health care professionals licensed to practice medicine under physician supervision.  Physician assistants evaluate patients, perform physical examinations, order and interpret tests, diagnose and treat illnesses, assist in surgery and write prescriptions. While physician assistants work in all health care environments, traditionally physician assistants have chosen to serve in primary care.

Seton Hill offers two degree programs in physician assistant: a combined Bachelor of Science/Master of Science Program, and a Master of Science Program. Through the Physician Assistant Program at Seton Hill University students are exposed to wide-ranging academic experiences and hands-on clinical practice. Our faculty are dedicated educators and experienced health care providers who educate students to become clinically competent physician assistants who care for the whole patient - respecting diversity and delivering 'patient-centered' care that is ethically sound.

Please note: Seton Hill is no longer accepting students for the Master of Science in Physician Assistant Program course cycle beginning in January 2012. Any student submitting a CASPA application during the 2011-2012 CASPA cycle will be considered for admittance to the program in January 2013.
